B. If you want to divide numeric values, you should use the "/" operator as there isn't a DIVIDE function in Excel. For example, to divide 5 by 2, you would type =5/2 into a cell, which returns 2.5. The QUOTIENT function for these same numbers =QUOTIENT(5,2) returns 2, since QUOTIENT doesn't return a remainder. For other ways to divide numbers, see Multiply and divide numbers in Excel. ✓
C. Only works in old versions
D. Output is always a dynamic array

Explanation: Correct: If you want to divide numeric values, you should use the "/" operator as there isn't a DIVIDE function in Excel.
